A History of Sick and I

**McCoy** · 05-01-2009, 07:15 AM

This will be a brief overview of the history between sick and I, concerning the sites we have created and monitored. Some dates or events may be left out due to me forgetting about them. If you (or sick) remember something I don't, tell me and I will add it. Thanks!

It all started when I and a few close "internet buddies" started a site called PremiumTech (thepremiumtech.com). I'll list a couple of those buddies (I may forget some); Loud (tommy) Chuck Norris (known then as Chuck) PAN5Y (Luis) Gob (Alex) and a couple other random people. The site was a small success, but didn't make it far due to my lack of money (we were on a fraud version ov vBulletin) and my lack of knowledge, as it was my first site/forum.

As time went on (a month or so) Sick (known then as SickShot) contacted me (Im not sure how he found me, he may want to fill that in) and said he could be a good Moderator if I needed him. I discussed this with my fellow admins/mods and decided to make him moderator of Premium Tech.

The site was later shut down due to lack of popularity on the internet (It was just not something the net really needed.... There were already a billion larger sites like it, so it wasn't going to go anywhere).

A month or two later, I opened an MLG (Major League Gaming) fan/competition site. IT was called MLGSPOT.com That was back in the Halo 2 days, before halo 3 had come out (even before it's release date was announced). I had mostly the same people at my side as I did the first time. The site was a small but succesful site on it's own accord, but it too was shut down later on as it slowly stopped growing.

About the time I shut down mlgspot, I opened TranverseGFX with Alex (Gob). Sick later joined too, along with all the other members from the two previous sites. Not all of my "followers" we good at graphics. I had to encourage Gob to start. He soon became very good at "sigs" and "tags". Much better than me in fact. The site did/is still doing decent. It is still up and running, but has little to know moderation/traffic. -transversegfx.com . After about 8 months, I sold/traded the site to sick. Part of the trade was that he would buy the domain for an Xbox 360 fan site.
About a week later, we announced the opening of 360revamped.com. I beleive the site is still up and running, but idle like TGFX. By this time Sick and I had become close friends/partners in wed design.
Over time, we decided the domain wasn't the best and the site started to slowly fade away. About that time I got into trouble (PM Sick or me for more info on that ;)) and had to be away for 2-3 months.

After I was able to get back on and be active, we wanted to start a better, more secure and professional Xbox 360 site. But we knew that this time we would have to do a LOT of planning before we jumped into it. So after about 2 solid weeks of umping and grinding on ideas, we opened MyXboxSpot.com. And here we are today!

That's the story from my point of view, Sick has had a lot of other small sites in between, he may want to tell you about those in his post.

Why are you posting this to begin with? Lol didn't want to sound rude. My first site was se7ensins.com and thats about it. It was my myspace lol. then I came here now I barely get on se7en. I rarely do.

**McCoy** · 05-01-2009, 07:51 AM

I posted it in case ayone was wondering how the site came around.... or if anyone wanted to know more about me or sick...

**NicksMods** · 05-01-2009, 07:56 AM

360revamped.com redirects into here so i guess its not open :( but TGFX is and i encourage anyone wanting to know how to do their own sigs and tags and avatars to go there and learn how.

Nice thread McCoy!

**McCoy** · 05-01-2009, 08:29 AM

Hmm yeah you're right....
Thats good. I think we should redirect TGFX too cuz no one goes to it, but it has a LOT of possitive traffic + search engine rank

**Sick** · 05-01-2009, 02:44 PM

Yeah for the most part you got a lot of it right, You forgot to mention that I had to restart TransverseGFX backup and it was doing great traffic wise had a PR2, right now MxS this is by far the most professional site i've developed with you and The best in Appearance too.

360Revamped.com does redirect to here :)
As for TransverseGFX.com I'm not sure yet. What I'm gonna do with that site.
